My Important Songs

Tuesday, 21 March 2017

Music is something beautiful. Just listening to those notes can take you somewhere different, and totally transform you into a memory, a place or a person. And so this is why I created my tingle playlist. The songs that mean something to me. That just make me tingle. So this playlist, is a snippet of Amelia, and I'm going to tell you why.

Original Don- Major Lazer:
This song was played a lot when I went to LA, so now I simply associate it with my trip to LA. And it makes me feel things.

Sticks'n'Stones- Jamie T:
I remember on my journey from Manchester to Devon I listened tot his song a lot. And tried to learn the lyrics in the majority of my family holiday in Devon. It brings m back to this song, and the beginning of summer where I created a lot of memories. And for some reason the song really speaks to me. I can see a movie being based on this song.

Bubbles- Biffy Clyro/Five Seconds- Twin Shadow/Thank You- Dido/ White Flag- Dido/ Unwritten- Natasha Bedingtonfield:
I remember listening to these songs and singing along out loud a lot on late night summer drives with my friend. And they always take me back to last summer. Good times. Really good times.

Skinny Genes- Eliza Doolittle:The whole Eliza Doolittle album reminds me of going on a drive up to Leeds to visit Grace with she was filming The Sparticle Mystery. It always takes me back there. Every single time.I Hope I Become A Ghost- The Deadly Syndrome/ Don't Be AFriad, You're Already Dead- Akon/Family:
I listened to these songs after watching the world's greatest Dad with Robin Williams. The film really hit hard because there is the theme of suicide and this was after Robins death. But for some reason, the songs stuck with me. I listened to them a lot when I was writing and really influenced me with stories and my emotions too.You To Me Are Everything- The Real Thing:
Someone really close sang this song to me in Karaoke. They made a whole announcement at busy pub, saying 'This song is for Amelia', and it was one of the sweetest things anyone has ever done for me. I will always associate this song to that moment, and associate to how I felt.

Sexual- NEIKED, Dyo:
It was a late evening, and I was on some grass, two of my friends sitting opposite on a park bench, and I started jamming out to this song, and full on dancing. It was random. But it sticks in my mind. I like it.

A Decent Cup Of Tea- Frank Turner:
When I was in a very low place a close friend of mine told me to listen to this song, I didn't. I wish I did, because it wasn't until I listened months later, and found out why he told me to listen to it. The song was so accurate to my situation at that time, and it felt like the song was about it. This song hits deep. It's special to me nowPorcelain- Red Hot Chilli Peppers:
Apparently, when a friend listened to this song it'd make them think of me. Because my skin is like porcelain, pale...lol. But it made them think of me for all the good reasons. Which is freaking cool. Porcelain is a really nice song, and the fact that someone can listen to a song and think of me is even nicer.Untouched- The Veronicas:
This song I listened to a lot when I felt VERY single hahahah

There is a lot more songs, and I think this list of songs will only continue to grow as I find more of my tingle songs, so make sure you're following me on Spotify. Also let me know if I should do another blog post on other songs that mean a lot to me. (I couldn't fit them all on here, or we'd be here all day). And lastly let me know some of your tingle songs, because I'm nosey as hell hahaha

Isn't it strange how songs can transport you back to a happier time of your life. My dad and I always jam out to Mr Brigjtside in the car and I don't think I can listen to that song without smiling now. Eyes wide open by Sabrina Carpenter reminds me of my summer in 2015- I've never had a better time I don't think. Jess <3 @jess.grace
